Highspeed sync flash or HSS flash as it’s commonly called is an incredibly useful tool for achieving multiple tasks. This advanced flash feature has evolved over the years to become as easy to use as simply pressing a button but if you’re about to try it for the first time, this video is essential viewing.

Before photographer Gavin Hoey takes you through the basics of HSS he explains why highspeed sync flash matters in a small home studio. In this case, it’s all about working with wide apertures to achieve a shallow depth of field and as Gavin demonstrates, it’s important to understand both why you need HSS and when it can help.

Gavin then takes you through his threestep HSS flash process. Starting with underexposing the room lights he then turns on the highspeed sync feature on his Flashpoint transmitter and finishes working out the correct flash power by taking a test photo or two.

Adding a second HSS flash isn’t a problem and Gavin finishes his photo session by doing just that. With the help of a blue gel to differentiate the flashes, Gavin is able to set up a multiflash, highspeed sync photo session in no time at all.
